I need the anchor link to position a few pixels lower so it's centered in its box. When I do position:relative;top:5px; it works fine in FF, but in IE it's quite a few px off. I can't seem to get it to ever match in both browsers!

Any tips? IE needs to be top:8px; and FF needs to be top:4px; for it to look about right.

You should always try and use CSS to fix problems like these before resorting to conditional comments. In fact, it's hardly ever necessary to use them, and that's for the good. Conditional comments are a pain in the ass to maintain and once you use one you'll start using more and more. Big no-no nowadays.
